Gravel in Spokane Valley, WA

Final price depends on gravel type, local supplier rates, and delivery distance, so we provide exact quotes on our site. As a ballpark, delivered gravel in the Spokane area often runs roughly $35 to $80 per cubic yard, so 10 cubic yards could be about $350 to $800; contact us for an exact quote. You can choose a delivery date at checkout (standard delivery is 2+ business days) and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Note Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order for delivered material.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, which is usually about 2.1 cubic yards depending on the material, so purely 2 cubic yards is typically below our delivery minimum. For very small needs, consider buying bags from a local yard or picking up smaller loads yourself; you can also contact our team and we will try to suggest the most cost-effective option. We recommend checking the product pages or calling 855-241-8884 to explore small-quantity options in Spokane Valley.

For decorative areas or light foot-traffic paths, gravel can be placed over well-graded, compacted soil cleared of organic topsoil, and a fabric layer can help reduce mixing. For driveways or heavy-traffic areas you should remove topsoil, install a compacted crushed-rock base (typically 4-8 inches depending on use), and compact each layer to prevent settling and frost heave. Proper prep is especially important in Spokane Valley because seasonal freeze-thaw and local soils can cause uneven settling if organic material or loose topsoil is left in place.

No, 2 inches of gravel is not sufficient for a driveway. For most residential driveways in Spokane Valley we recommend a compacted base of 4 to 8 inches of crushed rock or crusher-run, plus 1 to 2 inches of wearing course on top; heavier loads may need 8 to 12 inches of base. Proper base and compaction reduce rutting and frost-related movement common in inland Northwest climates.

If you need several cubic yards, bulk delivery is usually the most cost-effective per ton because it avoids bagging and retail markups. If you only need a small amount and have a truck, pickup from a local supplier can be cheaper than delivery since Hello Gravel has a minimum order (3 tons) and delivery costs. For very small decorative projects, bagged gravel from a home center is convenient but typically more expensive per cubic yard.

One cubic yard is 27 cubic feet and will cover about 108 sq ft at 3 inches, 162 sq ft at 2 inches, and 54 sq ft at 6 inches. Using a common estimate of 1 cubic yard ≈ 1.4 tons, one ton covers roughly 77 sq ft at 3 inches. A typical wheelbarrow carries about 4 to 6 cubic feet, so expect roughly 5 to 7 wheelbarrow loads per cubic yard depending on your wheelbarrow size.

A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 10 to 14 cubic yards, so at 3 inches that amount would cover roughly 1,080 to 1,512 sq ft. Hello Gravel coordinates deliveries using tri-axle dump trucks in most areas, so full truckloads are usually available if your driveway or delivery location can accommodate them. When ordering, confirm access, drop location, and any local permit needs so the driver can safely dump where you want it.

For structural areas and good drainage, a crushed-rock base with angular material and fines is best because it compacts well and sheds water; sharp sand is generally not a substitute for a compacted rock base. Geotextile fabric is useful to separate soil and base material and to limit mixing, but it does not stop all weeds and can trap fine sediments over time. In Spokane Valley’s variable soils and wet seasons, combining a compacted crushed base with fabric where appropriate gives the most reliable long-term performance.

Naming conventions vary, but generally a 'Type 1' or crusher-run product contains mixed-size crushed rock and fines that compact well and form a stable base for driveways. For driveway bases choose a compactable material (crusher-run, 3/4" minus, or similar) and finish with a 1 to 2 inch wearing course of crushed rock or pea gravel for appearance. For landscaping, use decorative options like pea gravel, river rock, or uniform-size crushed stone (3/8" to 3/4") depending on look and drainage needs; decorative gravels usually cost a bit more than base rock because of sorting and color.

Choose color and size based on style and function: pea gravel (small, rounded) is comfortable for walkways, 3/4" crushed rock offers a modern, angular look for driveways and beds, and larger river rock works for accents and drainage features. Decorative, colored, or larger-diameter gravels generally cost more per yard because they are less common and may need special sourcing. Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, availability and color in Spokane Valley reflect local geology; add color preferences in Order Notes or request samples when getting a quote.
